Too scared I could not run
I could not make a sound
Lights were flashing
My whole life passing
My feet were stuck to the ground

Too light to call it night
Too dark to call it day
Too scared to stay and fight
Too scared to run away

So scared I could not move
I could not make a sound
There were people running
People shouting
Flashes all around

Too scared to run
Too scared to run away

Too scared I could not think
LyricsMy eyes could not scarcely see
My heart was racing
My legs were shaking
They would not carry me

Lights were flashing
My whole life passing
My heart, my heart
My heart was racing
My legs were shaking
Could not see, I could not see


. . .



Safe in the shadows
Deep in the night
I know you're near
But you're nowhere in sight
Safe from the darkness
Down in the streets
I hear your footsteps
I hear your heartbeat
Oh, I can hear your heartbeat

On the street corner
Away from the light
I know you're near
But you're nowhere in sight
Over my shoulder
I feel you're near
I feel you moving
But you never appear

Chasing shadows
Chasing something I can't see
LyricsChasing shadows
Will I ever be free
Chasing shadows
Into the darkness from the light
Chasing shadows
I'm just a victim of the night
The night

Cloaked in darkness
You play at your game
I hear you breathing
Call out your name
Closer, closer, I feel you so near
You're just a shadow
But you never appear

Chasing shadows
Chasing something I can't see
Chasing shadows
Will I ever be free
Chasing shadows
Into the darkness from the light
Chasing shadows
Another victim of the night
The night

Shadows in the night

Safe from the darkness
Deep in the night
I know you're here
You're nowhere in sight
Over my shoulder
I know you are near
I feel you moving
Will you ever appear

I'm chasing something I can't see
Will I ever be free
Shadows in the night


. . .



On the rebound, on the rebound
That's how you fell for me
That's how you changed my life
You cut me like a knife

On the rebound, on the rebound
You came, you saw, you took
It only took one look
And lady, I was hooked

On the rebound - it's a replay ...

Your love was on the rebound
On the rebound
You came and took my soul
You came and left a hole
Where your love used to be

On the rebound, on the rebound
You like to drown in your tears
And after all these years
LyricsYou give your pain to me

On the rebound - you came to me, babe
On the rebound - to set you free
On the rebound - too bad for me
Your love was on the rebound

You came to me
To set you free
To pray for me
It's a replay
You came to repay
It's a replay
To set you free
Just a replay
Your love was
Just a replay

Sonny's out strolling, ambling slowly
Washed in amber street lights
A Mexican wind blows in
Takin' ahold of Angelina's hair
And her halo
Motors running, muffling the sound
Of the street talk
A big deal's goin' down

In another hot night
In a cold town
Got yourself a hot night
In a cold town

Johnny's got spare change
In his pocket
A ring and a watch
To hock for a sweet ride
A one way ticket
Hidden in his shoe
These last few hours
LyricsHe says he'll spend with you
He's leavin' home without a trace
No forwarding address
He'll never have to face another

Hot night
In a cold town
Got yourself a hot night
In a cold town

Well, the losers and the groovers
And the corner boys
Are hangin' around
Runnin' in and out of doorways
Up and down the stairways
Stray dogs headed for the pound

In another
Hot night in a cold town
Got you, got yourself a
Hot night in a cold, cold town
Cold town

It's just another hot night
In a cold town

Such a cold town


. . .


I've been waiting for my lady
One hour - she finally came
She came walking by my table
And I'm thinking
What's this fox's game
To be honest, I was ready
To play that white witch's game
And I knew that she was ready
To cut loose on the town and meet
Somebody new for a change

When you're running
All night with the lion
Running all night with the lion ...

I may not recall exactly
How I got her to sit down


She was sitting at my table
And I'm making out like a clown
Oh, she'll make me very happy
When she showed her fallen again
And I knew that she was ready
To cut loose on the town and meet
Somebody new for a change

Rock'n'rollin' ladies
Good life to the games you can't win
We'll drink right at my table
And we'll talk till it's time to go in
This could be something heavy
If only you'd show me a sign
And something says you're ready
To cut loose on the town and meet
Somebody new for a change

. . .



I've been thinking about
What you said last night
And for all your fine words
You still don't have it right

'Cause that's the way that it is
And you won't ever change
You can scream at me
But the powers that be
Won't ever hear your voice
'Cause they're lost
In their own importance
No, they'll never hear your voice

'Cause that's the way that it is
And you won't ever change it

I've heard all your stories
Of how the few can be strong
And how you'll fight to the end
Just to prove me wrong
Lyrics
'Cause that's the way that you are
And you won't ever change it
But don't come cryin' to me
If your fanciful schemes
Don't turn out like you planned
'Cause you're chasin'
After something
That keeps slippin'
Through your hand

That's the way that it is
And you won't change it


. . .



Time has come to say goodbye
To the broken memories
They're locked inside like prisoners
In a place that no-one sees

Stayed up late with a friend of mine
Southern Comfort till dawn
We talked about the pains of love
Should've known from
The start you were wrong

I'm just a prisoner
Don't wanna lock myself away
Prisoner - I get so lonely, lonely
I'm a prisoner
Just when do you think love will stay
It walks right out on you - out on you

Tired blood runs through my veins
But I can't get no sleep
You lock my heart
LyricsIn these prison walls
This place I've got to leave

I'm a prisoner
Don't wanna lock myself away
Prisoner - I get so lonely, lonely
I'm a prisoner
Just when do you think love will stay
It walks right out on you - out on you

The sky is grey, it's raining
Like the storm in my heart
There ain't no use explaining
'Cause I'm leaving, leaving

Won't somebody set me free
Take me away from this misery
I get so lonely
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely
Won't somebody set me free
Please, please, set me free


. . .



You know you light my candle
You know you load my gun
You're way too hot to handle
There's nothing we ain't done

Give me your love
Give me that hot persuasion
I can't get enough
Give me that hot persuasion

Give it to me!

Mouth full of hot persuasion
You face me upside down
A love for all occasions
You won't catch me foolin' aroung

Give me your love
Give me that hot persuasion
I can't, can't get enough
Give me that hot persuasion
Lyrics
I need to know you're near me
I need you by my side
You keep my tank on empty
You keep me up all night

Give me your love
Give me that hot persuasion
Oh, can't get enough
Give me that hot persuasion

Give me your hot persuasion
I can't get enough, get enough
I've done hot persuasion

I got a solid silver reason
I got something you'll never buy
I've spent my life playing rock'n'roll
I wouldn't tell a lie
Well if you want to taste the freedom
Just let the music take a hold
I'm possessed by rock'n'roll
There's a thunder
See it and wonder
How to play the game
It's easy

You know we're gonna live forever
You know we're never gonna die
You see it's written
Across the sky tonight
I'm gonna tell you why
Because they've covered up the exits
We got a spotlight just for you
Im possessed by rock'n'roll
Hear me callling, stars are falling
LyricsTaking me away

Stand up - shout it out
I'm possessed by rock 'n' roll
Stand up - shout it out
Sell your soul
Stand up - shout it out
Let the music take a hold
Stand up - shout it out
Rock 'n' roll

Can't you feel we're getting stronger
Getting stronger every day
There ain't nothing gonna stop us
Oh, there ain't no way
It's like a rolling ball of thunder
You know it's never gonna stop
You know it's gonna drag you under
See me soaring
Thunders roaring
Things afraid again

I got a solid silver reason
I got something you'll never buy
I've spent my life with rock'n'roll
Oh no, would I lie
But if you want to taste the freedom
Just let the music take a hold
I'm possessed by rock'n'roll
There's a thunder
See it and wonder
How to play the game
It's easy

It's gonna drag you under
Gonna take your heart and soul
You gotta shout, shout, shout it out


. . .


I've had all I can take
I've taken just too much
I've made a big mistake
That put me out of touch
I don't think I can face
Another single day
Without a call from you
To take this pain away

So many tears ago
You turned and walked away
It could've been the end
But I knew better
I had to tell myself
There'll be another day
She wants to call it quits
But don't you let her

Can't you see


There's a chance for you and me
Think it over
Don't believe
In the things that may not be
Think it over

Why don't you think it over

Forgetting you is out
I ain't givin' in
The fuss was down to you
But it's not over
You have to face the truth
I'm still in love with you
I have to make you see
That it's not over

Why don't you think about it, babe

. . .


He's the son of the bitch
He's the son of a fool
Sign of the times
No exception he's the rule
He's down on his luck
He's down on his knees
Cut really deep
He knows how to bleed

He's the son of the dog
You'll see him run with the pack
He won't look you in the eyes
He'll stab you in the back
The son of the dog
Only runs with the pack
He'll take your life
He won't look back

Son of a - he's a son of a bitch
He's a son of a -
He's a son of a bitch

Hear the woman of the streets
She never learned how to cry
She'll spread her wings
She'll never fly
Woman of the night
She hangs like a bat
She'll scratch at your eyes
Fight like a cat


Hear the lost, hear the lonely
Hear the fool, that won't get to see
Hear the lost, hear the lonely
And don't, don't pity me

Son of the bitch
He's a son of a -
Oh, the son of a bitch

He's the son of the poor
The son of the rich
The son of the dog
The son of the bitch
Woman of the night
Hangs like a bat
She'll scratch at your eyes
She fights like a cat

He's the son of the bitch
He's the son of a fool
A sign of the times
No exception he's the rule
Down on his luck
Down on his knees
Cut really deep
So he knows how to bleed

He's a sign of the times
He's the son of a -
Son of a ... bitch
The son of a bitch

. . .


I am the little tin soldier
That wants to jump into your fire
You, oh, look in your eye
A dream passing by in the skies

I don't understand
All I need is to treat me like a man
I ain't no child, take me like I am

I've got some love
That belongs to you
I'll do anything that you want me to
I'll sing any song that you want me
To sing to you

All I need is your whispered hello
Smile smelting the snow


Nothing heard
Your eyes, oh, deeper than time
I see a love that won't
Rhyme without words
So now bless my way
I need help to show me
Things to say
Give me your love
Before mine breaks away

I don't need no aggrevation
I just got to make you
I just got to make you understand

I just wan't some reaction
Someone to give me satisfaction
I love you

. . .


I've had all I can take
I've taken just too much
